Step to the music
And I will follow your lead
My cheek beside yours

3/2/2023 – they all lay bare
I have but one heart for to give
One soul to join a pair
One body that by yours can live
For you they all lay bare
2/17/2023 – come a day
There will come a day
When we will hear all the grasses sing
And see all the paints upon a bright world
There will come a day
When we will feel the stories underfoot
And know by name the voices on the wind
And when that day comes
I will hold you
And you me
And we will walk as stars across the sky
2/14/2023 – let us breathe
Let our day be joyful
And as we take our flight
Into the bright horizon
Together let us breathe
1/24/2023 – none else in the world
I have but one desire
Alas that it is not mine to keep
For I make not the winds
Nor the streams
That will carry you
I make not the destinies
That the Fates
Have written for us
Yet still I shall hold to you
For there is none else in the world
For me
1/21/2023 – you, the sea
So little else amid this world
Could give such peace to me
As I in your arms still and curled
I, stone; and you, the sea
11/14/2022 – to you
To you:
The one who walks strong
The one who speaks gently
The one who thinks carefully
Who listens first
And speaks second
Who loves first
And hates seldom
Who brings me warmth
And meaning
And peace
And wonder
O, that I might give those things to you
To you
11/12/2022 – truest, most, best
Hide me away
In the crevices of your heart
Where I am safest
Hold me there
In the warmth of your embrace
Where I am strongest
Keep me here
Beside the kindness of your soul
Where I am truest
Where I am most
Where I am best
9/27/2022 – to the beasts of earth and sky
With a little breath
You slow mine
With the peace in your eyes
You bring mine to close
With the softness of your heart
You let mine rest
As the winter is to the beasts of earth and sky
So are you
To all of me
8/30/2022 – any of the world
In the quiet evening
As the wind drops
And the birds hide
And the little sounds of night
Whisper softly
I lay my head upon your lap
And listen to your breath
Your heartbeat
And it is a song finer
Than any of the world
